I have Kevin's card # and info. I will SOMEHOW get up at 6:30. I have no idea what dates we are looking at, so if someone could give me a summary in the AM, that would be great.

Do you have my IM people?

I just gave my credit card number to some woman I met in the internet.

If there's a third volunteer, with plastic at the ready, please let us know.

Otherwise, heheh, i don't think we need a conference, Katiesue ... just approve my Yahoo friends reply and we can simply I.M. our hearts out.

Oh, but since tonight is Valentines, I won't be home till morning to see if that works. We'll just cross our fingers.

I'm gonna try ressies by both phone and interweb. Think Bonita! (that's willpowered and positive-thinking good luck, especially in the area of reservations.)

This is the site for booking Lower Pines sites.

Here's a map of Lower Pines Camground. The best sites, and those that will go most quickly, are the ones on the outer edges of a loop, near the Merced River. From the looks of it, 36, 37, 38 and 39 would be the prime 4 sites.

17, 18, 19, 20 also look good, though farther apart from each other.

So let's try for the 30's group first, then the teens. Otherwise, let's use the campground map for best guesses, and anything nearer the river is likely better.

Arrival date is June 26, 2008 for a six-night stay.

Let's keep in touch by Yahoo IM while the madness is going on. I'm going to keep trying from promptly 7am to after 8. (For some reason, I think there will be better luck on the phone, but I dunno).

I'll try to log onto Yahoo at about 10 of 7.

katiesue · 02-14-2008, 09:19 PM

NA I just added you to IM

Not Afraid · 02-14-2008, 09:21 PM

Which program?

Katie, IM me. My Yahoo is being wonky.

blueerica · 02-14-2008, 09:40 PM

I will assume all is well and that my services are not needed.

Best of luck getting the sites!!!

Everything was gone in minutes. I have just faxed for a group reservation in Kings Canyon. Cross your fingers.

But we did do a little shopping since we had your number

innerSpaceman · 02-15-2008, 10:26 AM

So many restaurants were overcrowded yesterday. I expect we'll have much better luck with your credit card number tonight!

Morrigoon · 02-15-2008, 10:45 AM

Hahaha... Yeah, don't mind those extra charges, Kevy, it's all in the interest of the greater good
